There are many looks to the Daredevil costume over the years. Beginning with the yellow costume which Matt was said to have fashioned himself from his father’s old boxing robes, and going to the classic red costume that debuted in issue #7 of Volume 1. I am including a photo of the first Daredevil thread […]

This portrait of Daredevil in costume by David Mack, from the Wake Up arc, has always been one of my favorites. My friend Cynthia Hebbard sent me this glorious tie-dyed fabric that reminded me of an EKG, and gave me the idea to express the way Matt Murdock perceives when someone is lying to him. […]

Something about this cover just called to me to attempt to recreate it in thread and fabric. I found this fabric print called “Millineum” that had iconic New York skyline scenes on it, including the World Trade Center twin towers. It was printed in either 1999 or 2000, and I had bought a good deal […]

In Volume 2 of Daredevil, Kevin Smith and Joe Quesada worked together on “Guardian Devil”. The iconic page for me in this series was “Murdock’s Law”, showing Daredevil at the feet of Lady Justice. The quote is from another cover image by David Mack. My friend Cynthia Hebbard had sent me a great piece of […]

It is Matt Murdock that draws many of us to Daredevil. Over the years we have gotten to know this very human hero very well. In all these portraits of Matt Murdock, I used a single variegated color spool of Sulky thread that I don’t remember the number of, just that I call it “Matt […]

Inspired by the art in the “Wake Up” story arc of Volume 2, by Brian M. Bendis and David Mack, I was working through the personal grief of having to place my dear mother in a nursing home when I composed this panel. I dedicate it to my late mother, Ruby. She encouraged my dreams, […]

The law firm of Nelson and Murdock has been established since the first issue of Daredevil in 1964. The two college roommates decided to go into practice together, and their rocky but always devoted friendship has been a staple in the Daredevil saga. The Nelson and Murdock panel chronicles this duo from their times in […]

Daredevil, a Marvel Comics series, has always been a favorite. The 2003 movie starring Ben Affleck rekindled public interest in the character, and at that point, the idea for a series of art quilts featuring iconic works by various Daredevil comic book artists was born. These textile paintings are rendered in thread in a technique […]

Especially for the Doctor Who fan! Silver-toned metal charms jingle from a stainless steel chain with a silver-toned lobster clasp to attach to a cane strap or a purse handle. Charms include a TARDIS, a British flag, a planet, a clock face, a tea bag, a trenchcoat, a knitted scarf, and a bow tie. Style […]
